High-end laser perforation of cigarette filter tip paper

MLT laser units can be found as the on-line perforation system at a number of different cigarette manufacturers to perforated finished cigarettes directly on the production line.

The aim in each case is the manufacture of cigarettes with reduced tar and nicotine values - previously known as "light" cigarettes.
